Lightning Strikes Again

"Jamaica's Usain Bolt is officially the fastest man on the planet as he set a new 100 meters world record of 9.72 seconds at an international meeting in New York" released on CNN.com

Jamaican's Bolt marked his name during the Olympics in Beijing. He set his own Olympics record of 9.69 seconds for the 100 meters event. However, there was some speculation going on that he does not try his best for that event. People felt that he could go faster then that, and start to wonder how fast is fast can he really go if he pushed himself to the limit.

People wonder what his best would be, well the answer is here. 9.58 seconds for 100 meters where he broke his own record at World Championships in Athletics in Berlin, Germany. Who say lightning does not strike twice.

9.58 seconds is really a great record and the speed that he is traveling is trully awesome. After doing some calculation that is 1 second for every 10 meters approximately. Think you can ever see any human can ran as fast as that?
